Description

How to Massage My Senior Dog, Elements of Style and Full Body PetMassage™ Sequence
Jonathan Rudinger, LMT, RN. Founder and instructor PetMassage Training and Research Institute

The majority of the dogs that I work with in my PetMassage™ practice are older. These are the dogs whose human parents have noticed were experiencing challenges in their lives.

Physically, these dogs are dealing with the same issues that we humans have as we age: persistent aches and pains, arthritis, weakness, fatigue, malaise, obesity, reduced hearing and seeing, reduced skin integrity, warts, scabs, and barnacles, digestive problems, elimination problems, and respiration that is too shallow. With all this going on, it is small wonder that their dogs are dealing with alterations in socialization, body mechanics and self-image.

PetMassage™ addresses all of these behaviors by putting them in the context of balance and flow. When there is an area or body part that is out of balance, the entire dog is out of balance. When there is inadequate or excessive flow, the entire body is affected.

There are many added benefits when the body is functioning harmoniously and well. We see improved condition of overall health. We are restoring balance and integrity to dogs’ organs and organ systems.

Your dog’s body is happier. Your dog is happier in his body.

PetMassage™ is a way to observe your dog’s body and support its natural tendency toward rebalancing, self-healing abilities.

To give your dog the gift of PetMassage™, is to reward him/her for a lifetime of companionship and friendship.
If you accept the premises that Most diseases and dysfunctional behaviors are caused by stress, and PetMassage™ induces relaxation and reduces stress, you’ll see how PetMassage™ works.
I invite you to learn and practice the skills described in this book. Use them to help your senior dog rediscover his inner puppy. Let’s PetMassage™ your dog and optimize his/her balance and flow within their physical limits.

Thank you for your trust and choosing to use PetMassage™ to help your dog.

Oh, Jonathan! The book is engaging, easy to follow and blends philosophy and action amazingly! The illustrations are will chosen and helpful. The index should be a model of what easy access to info is all about. I’ve just started it (after bouncing around taking in all kinds of bits and pieces) and have already learned so much more.
